I'm Home

My aunt reminded me that it was important for me to write an "I'm home" post, so I think after settling in for week that I can finally write that post. Although, I'll be leaving up this blog because Lora will be in Kenya again. So, I'm home and it feels surprisingly normal. I've spent a lot of time with family and friends and the next thing on my "to do" list is to get a job before heading back to school. It's really hard to be away from my kids and leaving Exodus was really sad. The kids cried and said really sweet goodbyes to me. I cried in front of all of them in my formal goodbye. I feel like there is something missing inside of me when I am away from them, but I've promised to stay in touch and come back when I can. I'm hoping to go back in May, God willing. I am selling earrings from a market in Nairobi to raise money to go back. I am so thankful to God for the opportunity to live in Kenya. I am also thankful for everyone who support me and prayed for me, so thank you to all of you. AND stay tuned cause I'm not done with Kenya...
